Knysh V.V., Valteris I.I., Kuzmenko A.Z. and Solovej S.A. Corrosion fatigue resistance of welded joints strengthened by high-frequency mechanical peening

2

The paper gives the results of investigation of the influence of corrosive environment on lowering of fatigue resistance of tee welded joints on 10KhSND steel unstrengthened and strengthened by high-frequency mechanical peening (HFMP). The high effectiveness of application of HFMP technology as a method of surface plastic deformation of metal near the areas of fatigue damage localization to improve corrosion fatigue was established experimentally. Application of HFMP technology improves the cyclic fatigue life of tee welded joints in a corrosive environment 3.5 times and endurance limit by 80 %.

Pekarska V. Numerical simulation of metal structure in HAZ in welding of increased strength steel

5

A mathematical model is proposed, which describes the temperature field and phase transformations in laser welding. The temperature field is determined by the equation of an unsteady heat flow with a convection term using Green's function. Model of the phase transformations in solid state for the steel being welded is based on assumption of continuous cooling and Avrami, Koistinen and Marburger equations. Volume fractions of phases during cooling are defined as functions of the cooling temperature and rate, and deformation increment depends upon the temperature and phase transformations. Metal structure in the welded joint HAZ was evaluated.

10

Hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings were deposited on a titanium alloy substrate by the microplasma spraying (MPS) method. The method of factorial experiment with fractional replicas was used to study relationship between the MPS parameters (current, plasma gas flow rate, spraying distance, and powder consumption) and characteristics of the HA coatings (microstructure, morphology, content of crystalline and amorphous phases, and texture). The effect of coating thickness and subsequent heat treatment of the deposited layer on phase composition and texture of the coatings was calculated. The results demonstrate that the coating formation process has some special features under the MPS conditions.
